According to news reporting originating from Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "Synthetic aperture radar ( SAR) coherence magnitude is an essential parameter in SAR interferometry." Our news reporters obtained a quote from the research from Remote Sensing Techno logy Institute: "This is the reason why current interferometric wide area ground motion services require the estimation of the coherence magnitude as accurately and computationAlly effectively as possible. The objective of this article is t o improve the accuracy of this coherence estimation compared to known estimators , especiAlly when estimating low coherences and working with a smAll, i.e., N $ <$ 30, but also large number of samples, i.e ., hundred or more. Precisely, this article proposes the interferometric coheren ce magnitude estimation by composition of subsample estimates and machine learni ng (ML). The principle is to partition the given sample and to estimate coherenc es on these independent subsamples using different coherence magnitude estimator s. It results in a nonparametric and automated statistical inference. It is show n that the composite ML estimator has a high estimation quality yet without prio r information, provides a deterministic estimate and is numericAlly efficient, i t is suitable for general interferometric synthetic aperture radar applications and operational systems."

    New Artificial Intelligence Study Findings Recently Were Reported by Researchers at Texas A&M University (Explainable Artificial Intelligence Predi ction of Defect Characterization In Composite Materials)

According to news reporting originating from Colle ge Station, Texas, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "Nondestructive e valuation (NDE) techniques are integral across diverse applications for void det ection within composites. Infrared (IR) thermography (IRT) is a prevalent NDE te chnique that utilizes reverse heat transfer principles to infer defect character istics by analyzing temperature distribution." Financial support for this research came from Department of Aerospace Engineerin g at Texas A M University. Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Texas A&M University, "Although the forward heat transfer problem is well-posed, its inver se counterpart lacks uniqueness, posing non-unique solutions. The present study performs simulations using finite element analysis (FEA) in defective (a penny-s haped defect) composites through which the heat transfer flux is modeled. A tota l of 2100 simulations with various defect positions and sizes (depth, size, and thickness) are executed, and the corresponding surface temperature vs. time and vs. distance diagrams are extracted. The FEA outputs provide ample input data fo r developing an explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) model to estimate the defect characteristics. A detailed feature engineering task is performed to sele ct the representative information from the diagrams. Explainable decision tree-b ased machine learning (ML) models with transparent decision paths based on deriv ed features are developed to predict the defect depth, size, and thickness. The ML models' results suggest superb accuracy (R2 R 2 = 0.92 to 0.99) across All th ree defect characteristics."

According to news reporting out of Fuzhou, People' s Republic of China, by NewsRx editors, research stated, "Thyroid surgery has un dergone significant transformation with the introduction of minimAlly invasive t echniques, particularly robotic and endoscopic thyroidectomy. These advancements offer improved precision and faster recovery but also present unique chAllenges ." Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Fujian Medical Univ ersity Union Hospital, "This study aims to compare the learning curves, operatio nal efficiencies, and patient outcomes of robotic versus endoscopic thyroidectom y. A retrospective cohort study was conducted, analyzing 258 robotic (da Vinci) and 214 endoscopic thyroidectomy cases. Key metrics such as operation duration, drainage volume, lymph node dissection outcomes, and hypoparathyroidism incidenc e were assessed to understand surgical learning curves and efficiency. Robotic t hyroidectomy showed a longer learning curve with initiAlly longer operation time s and higher drainage volumes but superior lymph node dissection outcomes. Both techniques were safe, with no permanent hypoparathyroidism or recurrent laryngea l nerve damage reported. The study delineated four distinct stages in the roboti c and endoscopic surgery learning curve, each marked by specific improvements in proficiency. Endoscopic thyroidectomy displayed a shorter learning curve, leadi ng to quicker operational efficiency gains. Robotic and endoscopic thyroidectomi es are viable minimAlly invasive approaches, each with its learning curves and e fficiency metrics. Despite initial chAllenges and a longer learning period for r obotic surgery, its benefits in complex dissections may justify specialized trai ning. Structured training programs tailored to each technique are crucial for im proving outcomes and efficiency."

According to news reporting out of Brescia, Italy, by NewsRx edi tors, research stated, "This paper presents a low-cost pose measuring device cap able of simultaneously measuring All six coordinates (3 translations and 3 rotat ions) of a rigid body with respect to a given reference frame. The proposed syst em consists of a mechanical chain of rigid bodies and two encoders." Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the University of B rescia, "The mechanism is a spatial four-bar linkage system with a symmetrical R evolute-Spherical-SphericalRevolute (RSSR) kinematic structure, where two encode rs measure the rotation of the revolute joints. The mechanism is investigated th eoreticAlly and solved kinematicAlly using a numerical estimation method. The un certainty of the pose determination, caused by the repeatability of the sensors, is estimated, as well as the achievable measurement range. A low uncertainty is achieved by a suitable design of the proposed kinematic chain. The mechanism is easy to realize with low tolerances and the correct definition of the length of the links Allows a quite large workspace. The system can be profitably used in the calibration of robots or multi-axis machine tools where the actual pose of the gripper or spindle must be measured over the workspace of the machine."

The meas urements encompass 11 frequencies ranging from 86.7 to 106.6 MHz, encompassing v arious reception scenarios such as rural and urban areas. The proposed method co nsiders factors such as the receiving location, terrain, frequency, and other re levant information specific to the Beijing area. It matches different areas with suitable propagation models to construct the FM BMs, combining the strengths of the three models. To verify the proposed method, we employ the relative error a s the evaluation criterion to evaluate the prediction performance of the propose d and the typical model. The comparison demonstrates the significant advantages of the proposed method in terms of prediction accuracy and stability. This resea rch is a valuable reference for regional application and localization research o f radio wave propagation prediction methods in the FM broadcasting band."
